Best Despisers Poems


Swamp Glory

fickle crickets: 
serenading sirens
of retreat, as chartreuse digits 
creep dark alley swamps;
hanging jungle themes invade
quiet dens perpetuated by
creation’s wet glory...croaking:
ancestral tales of grandeur.

mammal sigils:
	evoking tootling 
trespassers of environmental legacy;
	nature redeeming medicines
sustaining miracles of light...EPA
	earth.provides.assistance:
yet mankind defers pollution-free
	toxic-free lakes of life.

scatter kingdom:
	encroaching breaths spew
poisonous darts of entitlement
	never biblically enforced;
gather eggs of free-will, lay deep
in vined elegance towering
beneath second-heaven despisers
	of extant species.

Perilous Times
Written: by Miracle Man
September 25, 2020

Lord, Hear our prayers as we intercede,
on behalf of our troubled world today.
Disobedient people good thoughts impede,
and each day brings some new affray.

Today we are living in those perilous times,*
that you said the last days would bring.
The media reports daily on riots and crimes,
change our hearts before death bell’s ring.



*2 Timothy 3:1-4
      1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 
      2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 
      3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 
      4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

Premium Member Listen To Your Spirit

I am going to write about do you get what you sow
Do you actually get what you sow?
The Bible says you do
Galatians 6:7 "...For whatever a man might sow, that also he will reap."
"Don't mock the justice of God", it also says
So what are we to do?
Just do what the Holy Spirit guides you
Do what your spirit tells you
Your spirit man is very in tune with the Holy Spirit
Don't kid yourself
That uneasy feeling is what the spirit man telling you
That you have done something wrong
Fix it and listen to it
Correct it, my friend
If you disregard it, it will lead you to a world of troubles
For starter, you cannot listen to God no more
As it is clogged - the highway between you and God
You will be dullen - your senses
You will find that you are not in the top shape any more
And you know that something is wrong
That is your best indication
Some people know they did wrong but still are doing it
It is called "the darers of God"
Those will be dealt with swiftly
You don't know what He is going to do
But rest assured, He will do something
As you are now in another category
- the despisers of God
God has two sides to Him
Actually many sides
But you will see the side of Him that you never see it before
That would teach you the fear of the Lord
I have said many things
But the thing you should take away with is 
"do to others as you would have them do to you"
And listen to your spirit
And be kind


The Gift of Love

Time most perilous we live in, afflictions rampant
upon our souls, evil men running to and fro with
no reproof, despisers of those who keep the Lord's
truth, this attitude in life shall proceed no further the
Holy Ghost visited upon man, to the righteous upright
the position is took, to the wicked they cannot stand,
the word of God preached, taught, spoke in every
avenue to the sinners soul, who only wax worse and
worse, salvation offered by our Lord and Savior Jesus 
Christ, the only thing that can lift the unholy curse,
I could quote you chapter for chapter, and verse for 
verse, its meaningless without the Lord in your heart,
now that you have accepted, the grace of God be with
you, peace to you the love of Christ I impart, the 
Heavenly Father dwells inside of my heart freely today,
the spirit of Christ inside my temple freely lives, its the
love of Christ inside me, that I freely accept, the love
of Jesus I freely give. Salah

II Timothy 3

Strong Heart

Having been born in ghetto in Mathare, 
twas' my best place to have ever fallen for
Experiencing a short motherly love, 
that led to total absence  between the two of us
Fatherly love,  never  experienced  even for second 
Led me misfortunes into lots of hurts and misfortunes
never thought the world would turn it's back on me 
Going back to the place I used to Call 'gishagi'
Used to slang and perfect  English in ghetto
Landed me in new class of language heavy to speak
A deep cut of lasting trouble was to start experiencing
My hair cut for reason  'yetu huwa hailei nywele,
Never thought a person would go hungry 
Getting used to 'chapo, mcheti, and nyake
I know got used to kula mahindi nyeupe for supper
Striving hard to cope with  the situations 
This landed me to usitutawale huku sio Nairobi

Going to high-school I thought life would be easy
That fatherly love I missed would shadow me
Being naive a journey  of suffering  continued
Working till late and eating  when everyone  was asleep
Wile having supper I heard unakula nyama mono unaacha mifupa
Breakfast was no escort  for me in the house
Running for help to a relative who thought was nice
I forgot siku ya kwanza mkaribishe ya pill mpe jembe
Insults became a lifestyle, harassments were a routine 
Bitterness  cropped  my heart, vengeance clouded my soul
As I approached finishing my school this followed 
Nmesema kwangu uhame sikutaki tena hapa
Thinking of my future  this followed 
I don't think your better than my son 

Everything wasn't over till God says it's over
Twas' now a new beginning  for my life 
Still with struggles I waited patiently  like a parody 
All was made perfectly  for my Wellness 
What happened  was a foundation  for the future
When tides are high by his voice he calms it
When all is gone a new wind is coming for restoration 
When people hate more shore more love 
Stand on the firm ground that is Jesus Christ 
Everything  fell into place despite the challenges 
The despisers pretended to make it up
But a strong heart never gave up on forgiveness 
Current  situation shouldn't affect your destiny 
Many are the hailstones that hit us,obstacles that hinders
But true overcomes always win no matter what 
Life precious with God in ones side.

Let Jesus Be The Answer

Protesters use visual objects to air their whine,
encouraging others to grab a sign and take part.
Very seldom do minds change due to words on a sign,
because hatred is spawned inside a man’s wicked heart.

Therefore, permanence won’t come through force or coercion, 
When change arrives through coercion, it always divides.
Unyielding unity seems to be the assertion,
but just like a pancake, every issue has two sides.


? 2 Timothy 3 ?

1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.

Last Days
Written: by Miracle Man

Like Sodom and Gomorrah the world is living,
we’re compromising daily, our morals, in stages.
Hurrying through life harboring some misgiving,
burning precious time, turning our last pages.

As clock time, becomes more time foregone,
we grasp for straws thought to be inspiring.
In time, many become an emotional pawn,
and the straws grasped, were seldom aspiring.

 
2 Timothy Chapter 3
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

Last Days?
By Miracle Man
October 25, 2020

A pandemic covers the earth like the shadow from a passing cloud
causing death, disagreements, and great psychological damage.
It’s as if we stand on an iceberg that’s melting away,
causing many to believe we’re entering the last days.*

Many feel they’re not respected or valued.
Yet don’t see value or have self respect for themselves.

Too many have chosen to stand with arms outstretched,
palms up, feeling entitled to what someone else has,
and “Tax The Rich” echoes throughout the land,
With the government dispensing.
But I say, be thankful for those who create the jobs
that keep our economy running.

We elect what we think are good people,
but soon, like a chameleon, they blend into their surroundings,
become self serving, and are devoured by the government swamp. 
Just saying.

*2 Timothy 3:1-3:5
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

Societal Issues & Perilous Times
By: Miracle Man

Today, we are living in a world of chaos,
where many are engrossed in driving wedges.
Anyone who is different is fair game and racist.
Social justice, woke, and Cancel Culture is the narrative. 

It’s like living in an old class B western movie.
Gun sales are skyrocketing, and many conceal carry.
 We destroy past things and modify what we teach, 
in an attempt to change History by polluting young minds.

Too many have the victim mentality seeking something free,
and demand compensation for wrongs that happened years ago. 
Count your blessings and pray for our elected leaders
for truly we may be living in the last days.
Tom

Today we’re facing challenges,
beyond our imagination.
We seek God’s face in prayer,
and wait for God’s cessation.

Votes are sold for the prospect,
of getting something free.
Electing those to some office,
who never seem to agree.

We take the life of the unborn,
and morals aren’t as has been.
To finance life improvements,
we legalize all sorts of sin.

As we bravely face each new day,
trouble lurks at every bend.
I feel things won’t get better,
until God declares, the end.

2nd Timothy chapter 3
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud,       blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

It’s more than a virus infecting the land,
we awaken each day to a state of paranormal.
My thoughts are that God has removed his hand,
and things will never return to being normal.

Prophecy is being fulfilled as each day goes by,
are we nearing the day when man will succumb?
Protest is rampant, and for free stuff is the cry,
the peace that man seeks God says won’t come.



2 Timothy 3:1-5 
'This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.'
